Close Sexual Abuse
Treatments
- Psychotherapy Working / Worked
- I think self awareness is the key. Why do I do the things I do is key to understanding myself and to change the way I do things. Its not easy but worth it.
Close Codependency
I became emotionally dependent on specific friends (mother figures)after being sexually abused and my mother not really knowing how to handle it or getting help for me as a child. She wasn't emotionally there for me. I know she did the best she could with what she knew and had, but unfortunately, it wasn't good enough and I paid and still am paying the price.
Treatments
- Self-help Working / Worked
Open Obesity
I was sexually abused as a child. After the abuse was over, I started to gain weight. A way I found to hide my emotions. My highest weight was 240lbs. 5 years ago, I had a light bulb moment. I started to eat healthy, and exercise. I lost 100 lbs and have kept it off for 4 yrs. I still do all of the above. I made a lifestyle change that has paid off for me big time. I am currently on a healing journey for my sexual abuse. Life is 100 % better.
Treatments
- Cycling Working / Worked
- spinning is a wonderful workout.
- Elliptical Trainer Working / Worked
- good cardio workout
